Thanks for all the advice Will. And I think ur right about dynamics being one of my culprits. I also think clip gain level has been a biggy for me. Yall reminded me just how much the gain and dynamics effect the eq curve. Knowing where my problem lies is half the battle. I just need to change a couple of habits now and I think I'll be fine.

Awesome! I didn't know this shortcut. That's a great timesaver for me. And ur other advice is great too. I'll keep it in mind moving forward. Btw, I do get why u keep stressing the importance of consistency when tracking. If I pay better attention to that, I'm actually SAVING myself time and work. I guess I'm just trying to see how much I can get away with being a dumba*s. It'd be great if I can continue being a dumba*s yet somehow get amazing results. Those two things combined would bring me great joy and a feeling of true accomplishment. 😁

Wow, I was just kidding around 😄 However, Im not surprised. When an idea is that stupid, someone is bound to invent it.

Thanks a lot. I checked it out and downloaded the free trial. It's EXACTLY what I was describing. Unfortunately, it wasn't the magic fix I was hoping for(It actually took me further away tonewise). I guess the positive news is Im gonna get more practice at decerning freqs by ear. Btw, mettelus is 100% right in that most of my problems are self induced thru inconsistent distances(and sometimes slightly varying gain levels). But Im on a QUEST to try and get away with as loose & stress-free a workflow as possible. I actually get off on making each process as quick, consistent and easy as I can. I wanna be able to jump between tracks and punch in audio as if it were midi. Even if it means sacrificing a bit of sound quality. Flow, speed and consistency are more important to me. That said, Ive also been checking out acoustic IRs in place of micing. I hate that I have to be super mindful of micing distance and angle. It takes some of the joy out it for me and stiffens my performance a bit. When I play guitar, I naturally move my body. Stiffness and thought are the enemies Im even searching for an auto-strummer that attaches to my guitar so I can rest my right hand. (Yeah, that one's a joke 😊)
